A recent study described the creation of a wearable ultrasound sensor that can review patient heart function and structure remotely.

Published in Nature, recent research led by the University of California San Diego described how patients could engage in remote cardiac imaging through a wearable ultrasound sensor that measures the amount of blood pumped by the heart.

When evaluating long-term heart health, cardiac imagining is a vital tool in detecting issues and determining care plans. Among the elderly, cardiac diseases are a leading cause of death, and signs can be hard to foresee, the press release noted.
